Abstract
ABSTRACT Dry environment plays a very important role in the healing of infections. Commercially available sanitary pads were sterilized individually using ethylene trioxide (ETO) for 24 hours and used as dressing material in 10 Ludwig's angina patients. When compared with conventional gauze dressing, it showed significantly less number of dressing changes. We recommend its use as an alternative absorbent wound material for head and neck infections.
